CLI11/examples/enum_ostream.cpp
Philip Top d621658e6d Issue #339 (#348)
* add an example where the name of the enum is printed through a stream output function, which subverted the checkTransformer conversion and prevented conversion of the enumeration.

* add missing 'typename'

* try a simpler version of the value_string using const reference for all overloads

* use auto return type to match to_string return type in value_string

* remove extra spaces
